Hey all -
Just thought I''d post a quick update, although I don''t have that much new to say. Thanks to everyone who took the time to send me your kind thoughts and warm wishes and words of support over the holidays.
They were rough. Very rough - but my mindset is a little better now that they are over. I did leave town over the New Year. Went to visit my sister and her husband and we just stayed in and watched the ball drop over Times Square.
I admit to crying a little bit at midnight. I just kept thinking that I had all these hopes and plans for 2007 - including, obviously, getting married - and now, I just have absolutely no idea what this year holds for me. Or what I want it to hold. I just am a little lost, I guess, cause I am not sure what to do with myself.
I''ve had some interaction with my ex, but I''ve tried to keep it at a minimum, because it seems like every time I talked to him, I just ended up feeling worse after I got off the phone. None of those conversations have solved anything anyway.
He still hasn''t told his family, or any of his close friends that we have split up, apparently. I ran into one of them at the gym today and he asked how my ex was and whether we had a good Christmas, etc. It was hard...this after all, was HIS friend, and not mine, and I felt like it wasn''t really my place to say anything.
It''s been officially five days since we talked last, and it seems like an eternity, but I am dealing with it the best I can.
Hope everyone had a good New Year''s. Thanks again for everything...
